I'm thinking you must already have a flag like that, to indicate that the messages can't be reported or voted on.
Even if you can't reuse that, what's one more flag to indicate that the group can't be reported, and always displays its bio?

Make it a privilege, not a right, and make it dependant on the quality of the members. Two or more gold or platinum members means "public homepage" = true.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

What about giving a boost to that account's reputation so that it gets over the limit?
That's even easier

That still wouldn't prevent the group from being reported as "abusive", though.

Yeah, that's right

Thanks for replying quickly.
As you know, the forum is read only for non-members and read/write access for members. The forum rules & conditions (the bio) should be visible to both kinds of members so that the rules etc are in plain sight for all to see.
The forum has been around for many years. Is "minimum time living" an option if you are concerned about new CP members doing naughty things? Of course, legitimate groups may not been as long established as SB1.0
Many thousands of postings have been made in that forum over the years. So, yes, you could place a minimum number of posting before enabling custom bio's. However, legitimate groups with too fewer postings would get caught out.
We have over 200 members, but as with CP, not all are active members. A minimum number of members could work, but then, there are other legitimate groups with fewer members. Deciding on minimum membership numbers could offend other legitimate groups by giving a membership criteria as being too low.
Perhaps the URL of legitimate groups could be the enabling factor, that presumes you have some knowledge of who such legitimate groups are.

Today when I enter a forum the OP is always expanded. Wasn't doing that about a week ago.
I have using Firefox.
Looking at my profile page I didn't see anyway to turn that off.
This includes the stickies at the top of each forum. Which means I must scroll through each forum guidelines even to see first message.

Do you have any JavaScript error at the Console?

This seems to apply only to "Author" events. Sign in, Upvotes (given and received), and Answer Question are all there.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I guess you mean "Debator".
Did you checked it for the post I'm replying to?
My previous post in another forum is showing up.
[EDIT]
And this is shown too.

Now they are showing up. A couple of messages that I posted earlier didn't appear.

See it now[^]. Too lazy to post a proper question, so puts HTML in the title.

I suddenly have 8 unfinished articles on my list... of which 6 is empty and should not be there, while the other two should have titles...

I've opened up your ability to view your own articles that were only in embryonic stage. Feel free to delete them if you don't need them.

I have the same situation so I'll delete the empty ones.
But before that, why do the drafts appear in my profile's Articles page, not in the Drafts page?
For example Draft | Untitled article

Thanks for Q&A on this, because I just saw that issue in my articles too.
I'll go delete them.

Okay, part 2.
I went and deleted all those untitled entries but I had one that was unpublished/draft that had a title like:
Create Desktop UX With ASP.NET MVC (Part 3 of 3) and it is gone now.
Well, if you can find it, that would be nice. If not I understand.
Thanks,
